361 Wouldn't that mean...
“SYSTEM! I want to modify the Soul Shards granted to the Dragon Apostles! How do I do that?” Elliot said with great anticipation to the System.
[You may do so at will by altering the Command Runes of the Soul Shards within your own soul.]
As Elliot watched, ten runes started to glow in his dormant, but highly empowered soul that reflected each of the Soul Shards within the ten Dragon Apostles.
“I see! These runes mean “Clone”! And the Soul Shards within the Dragon Apostles exhibit 25% of my soul power due to the power of these runes. Now, if I modify these runes according to the Ascendant Rune’s principles…”

B O O O O M M ! ! ! ! !
GRAAHHH!!!!!!
Primal Golden Fire suddenly let out a roar of pure exultation as his soul aura suddenly skyrocketed!
300%
500%
800%
1000%!
“WHAT THE HELL?” One Primal couldn’t help but sputter in shock!
However, he was the only one who even managed to utter anything.
The rest of the Primals were rendered completely speechless!
Primal Golden Fire was already extremely powerful before he swore his fealty to Elliot. It wouldn’t be strange at all if he could fight two Primals to a draw at the same time. But at that moment… He was exhibiting 1000% of his previous power level!
Didn’t that mean he could fight with 20 Primals at once and fight them to a draw??
What the hell just happened?
B O O O O M M ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Primal Silverwing’s aura suddenly skyrocketed as well!!
And then it was Primal Kiltasar.
Primal Bisi.
Primal Farsha.
Primal Deathwing.
Primal Kharlox.
Primal Xyrax.
Primal Vitalos.
Primal Purity.
The other Primals could only stare at the ten Dragon Primals with dead eyes.
If all ten Dragon Primals were to suddenly transform into Saints, they wouldn’t even blink in shock anymore.
They were completely numb.
“Hohoho. Now all of the Soul Shards are able to exhibit a full 100% of my soul strength! Too bad my mastery of the Ascendant Rune is rather limited. If not, I am pretty sure I can tweak the Clones to exhibit beyond 100% of my soul strength!” Elliot told Jessica Sands in satisfaction.
“Don’t worry. I am working on several more Ascendant Runes that would allow you to do exactly that.” Jessica Sands assured Elliot privately.
“Excellent! These Ascendant Runes sure are overpowered! When-“
[Ding!]
[Two-way Blood Assimilation required to initiate Cosmic Energy Transference to Dragon Apostles.]
Elliot gulped.
That’s right.
What he got from the Dragon Apostles were merely two things at that moment.
Their sworn fealty which triggered the awarding of the Dragon Apostle Title.
Their Soul Essence which triggered the awarding of the Soul-Bound Dragon Apostle Title and the distribution of the Soul Shards.
He needed one more thing to make them complete Apostles like the rest of his Beast Apostles.
Exchange of blood!!
That way, his Dragon Apostles would be able to utilize his Darklight Energy as well like the rest of his Beast Apostles!
“Uh, I assume you’re asking when I can finish the rest of the Ascendant Runes? With the progress I am making, I can finish them within a month, latest! Isn’t that great?” Jessica Sands said happily.
“Jessica, give me a minute. Something good is happening.” Elliot said distractedly.
“Oh. Okay!” Jessica Sands said as her eyes widened in anticipation.
Elliot looked at his Dragon Apostles whose eyes were already filled with exultation and fervent passion and loyalty to him. And then he looked at the rest of the Primals who had very numb looks on their faces.
“Hehehe. Here comes the third surprise. Brace yourselves!” Elliot chuckled as he took out all the Blood Essences he got from the ten Dragon Apostles earlier and consumed them under the impassioned eyes of the Dragon Primals, the excited looks of Saint Dul’Akharat, Primal Alexander, Lilian and his sisters, and the dead eyes of the other Primals.
He spurred his powerful Cosmic Dragon Energy to guide the Blood Essences into his heart, and to begin the assimilation process.
Within a quick minute, it was done. His bloodline had already risen to the Prehistoric Level, assimilating with those Blood Essences were merely to fill in the gaps and complete the already magnificent tapestry that was his bloodline.
After that, Elliot forced out ten drops of his concentrated blood and flicked them towards the ten Dragon Apostles who immediately consumed them without a moment’s hesitation.
As they did so, ten powerful mindspaces appeared in Elliot’s mind.
“Master!” They cried out near simultaneously.
“Sit down and prepare to advance in power.” Elliot immediately told them.
As one, they obeyed his instructions.
Under the watchful eyes of all present, the ten Dragon Apostles began to exhibit rapid growth in strength once more.
However, after a mere three seconds of growth, all of their auras suddenly disappeared!
Nobody except Elliot could sense the near vertical explosion of power which the ten Dragon Primals were exhibiting.
It was at that moment, that Elliot finally came to terms with the absurdity of what just happened.
They were both at the King level.
Right now, seated before him, were ten PRIMAL Level Dragon Apostles who had Soul Shards within them, and who were now assimilating with his blood to unlock Darklight Energy!!
And they were all his to command.
Insanity!
Lunacy!!
Somehow, Elliot had found a loophole in how the system in the known universe worked, and he had catapulted his way to the very, very top in one ridiculously short month, to the point that the strongest Primals of the known universe were now his Dragon Apostles!!
And if a mere King like him could deal with Primals, then, how powerful were his Primal level Dragon Apostles? Would they be able to fight above their levels?
Most probably!
And if so, wouldn’t that mean…
Elliot turned to look at Saint Dul’Akharat who had a rueful look on his face, and who was coincidentally, looking at Elliot as well.
